▪️Chapter 13▪️Going Going▪️

[Jungkook POV | 8PM]

"That was so much fun Hyungs!" I laughed, my wings appearing on my back from being hidden. "Thank you for today, this is the best birthday ever!!"

"You're welcome Jungkookie. I'm glad that you enjoyed this year's birthday." Namjoon Hyung smiled, his dimples visibly showing.

We continued chatting about all the funny moments from today's adventure at the water park until Yoongi Hyung asked me a question.

"Jungkook-ah? You have an older brother right? Doesn't he remember your birthday?" Everyone went silent and all the attention was all on me. Out of habit, I directed my eyes to the floor.

"W-well uhmm.. Well, my brother... I'm not sure what happened to him.. I tried calling his number on my phone but all I get in response is that the number does not exist anymore... He might've changed his number but he never called me back... I really miss him and I hope that he is okay.." I explained, my voice going quiet at the end.

[Yoongi POV]

When I finished listening to Jungkook, I realised my question was a bit on the sensitive side. There was a few seconds of silence until I decided to take the first step. I called Jungkook's name, when he slightly looked up, I embraced him in a hug, caressing his hair. I have a feeling that the other members were shocked, but I don't care right now. Once Jungkook felt comfortable in my hug, he burst into tears. His wings wrapped around my back.

"I'm sorry about asking that question. I understand that you are worried, but at least if we have hope, your brother might turn up soon. It'll be okay." I whisper into Jungkook's ear, changing between rubbing his back and hair. The rest of the members joined in on the hug, saying sweet and comforting things in his hair as well.

We eventually broke the hug and Jungkook wiped his remaining tears. "I-It's okay Hyung. You didn't know and it's not your fault. I just cried because I missed Junghyun and all of my early memories with him just came crashing down on me.."

"It's okay Kookie, we understand. But as Yoongi Hyung said, as long as we have hope, he might turn up soon." Hobi smiled at Jungkook.

"Mhm. Thank you again Hyungs. I don't know what I would've done without you guys." Jungkook flashed his signature bunny smile that made everyone coo at their maknae, including me.

"It's getting pretty late now and we're back to work tomorrow. Shall we do our night routine and head to bed?" I suggest.

The others nodded and made noises in agreement and we went into our respective rooms, calling it a day.

[Mr.Lee POV | Midnight]

I couldn't take it anymore. Jungkook did not deserve this. He is finally happy, and he found happiness without me. I plucked up the courage to pack away my equipment I was going to use to kidnap Jungkook and left my hiding spot near their dorm. I got in my car and drove off empty handed. I knew, I knew Boss would be mad, but I'd rather suffer than take Jungkook's happiness away. I arrived at the underground parking lot in the lab and stepped out of my car, walking to the elevators. I breathed in and out, trying to compose myself as the elevator doors opened up to the Boss' office. Boss must've been expecting me as he immediately got up from his desk at the sound of the elevator and approached me. However, as he came closer, his expression turned ominous.

"Where is the boy?!" He growled, towering over me.

"I... Uh..." I breathed and looked straight into his eyes. "I don't have him."

"WHY?!"

"WELL, WHY DO I HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOU, YOU EVIL BASTARD!!"

"DON'T YOU DARE DISOBEY ME. REMEMBER THAT DEAL WE MADE?!"

"WELL, I DON'T CARE. DO WHAT YOU WANT, FRAME MY FAMILY, KILL MY FAMILY. ANYTHING BUT HARMING JUNGKOOK!!"

Suddenly, Boss lunged forward and punched me on my cheek, making me fall back on the ground. He hovered over me and continued to harm me on my face and chest, giving no mercy. The pain was excruciating. My arms struggled to lift up but I was able to get enough strength to push him off me. I scrambled back on my feet as he came running towards me. I swung my leg to Boss' face, hitting him square on the nose. I heard a crack and he yelled in pain, clutching his nose. He scowled at me and removed his hand from his bloody nose, striking me in the stomach, completely knocking me to the ground. I panted heavily, too weak to fight back. Boss noticed that I was too weak and smirked.

"Tsk. Poor poor you. Next time this happens, your consequence will be a lot worse. Now fix yourself up. I will get Jungkook myself as you, being such coward, couldn't." He gave me one last shove before leaving me alone in his messed up office.

I slowly sat up, wiping the blood that was running down my head. Out of nowhere, I began to silently cry. If only that bastard would've done nothing like this. Everything would have been peaceful and Jungkook would be in peace. I can only hope that, Jungkook won't get in Boss' hands.

------------------------------

Hello everyone! Sorry if the ending was so sudden, but when I started to write more, I felt that it was more relevant in the next chapter so... 🤷🏻‍♀️ Hope you guys are well. There is so much work coming from my online classes. The video calls also take up so much time and now I still have a lot of unfinished work. T-T If the updates become slower, you know why.

I've also been having... Like, emotional problems lately... Not like moodiness or depression or whatever. I've been feeling numb that I've even had to fake my happiness and... It also makes me less sociable. I don't text my friends a lot and I tend to just keep to myself... Yeah. So if this chapter and future chapters lack anything, I'm sorry. Don't worry, these don't last for so long.

That's all for now, thank you for all the reads! I appreciate it a lot!! ☺️🥰

Keep clean and sanitise! 💜💜💜💜
